No one is thinking about this question hard enough.

IT says a permanent settlement. None of us are going to live long enough to see a permanent settlement on mars. No human is going to live long enough to see a permanent settlement on mars. Mars won't be around forever. Even if we do make a long lasting settlement, it will be destroyed one day.

I think you are looking into it to much. I think by permanant settlement they mean people staying indefinately.

 

 

 

I know. :P But on the basis of unbiased semantics the answer is no, but within the context of this thread it's obvious that permanent means one we intend to be permanent.
